I would like to announce that I released a new fiction titled "My Life In The Multiverse" check it out and tell me what you think.

**********

Seeing the reunion of parents with their children is always moving, and this is the scene Tsunade, Shizune, and Bakorio were currently witnessing unfolding in front of their eyes as Naruto who just woke up couldn't believe that his parents were standing in front of him and he won't have to be restricted to simply seeing them in that damp seal space but he can actually live with them all together…

Meanwhile, as that family was having their happy moment which they truly deserved and Shizune was watching them with twinkling eyes, Bakorio noticed that Tsunade appeared to be in a very sad mood but she kept trying to cover it and put on a smile on her face… But emotions cannot hide from Bakorio's eyes so he approached her and said "Let's go talk about our deal"

Tsunade still trying to hide her emotions simply nodded to Bakorio and turned to Shizune and said "Wait for us here, we will be back soon" After she said this, she turned to Bakorio thinking that he was simply after her Jutsu and gestured for him to follow her coldly as she led him to another room in her house…

While Bakorio was following behind her, he couldn't help but admire how great this house was, truly deserving of the Senju clan, and before long they arrived at a room that was filled with old books and had a single desk inside it which he guessed was the room Tsunade uses to study…

Before they even entered this room, Bakorio was immediately assaulted by the scent of old books which made him feel nostalgic as he recalled his old study which he called his little heaven…

After they entered the study, Tsunade closed the door behind them and they both sat down facing each other separated by the desk and only now did Bakorio speak, and his question brought waves to Tsunade's heart as it was unexpected… "Do you want to talk about it?"

Tsunade not believing that this kid could actually see through her mask, decided to play it dumb and asked "Talk about what?"

Bakorio understood that it wasn't easy for this woman to open up to anybody especially someone she didn't know much about like him so he went straight to the point and said to her "I know you were feeling sad from the moment you witnessed Minato and Kushina using the spirit transformation Jutsu, and that feeling simply grew stronger when you saw their successful revival and the happiness they felt for getting a new chance in life..."

Tsunade suddenly stood and took a step back as she looked at the kid in front of her in astonishment. If it was only him seeing through her emotions she wouldn't be this surprised, but this kid was doing all of this while occupied with a very important task, and sometimes he was completely blind, yet he actually still spared some time to observe her which made her understand that he never let his guard for an instant which terrified her!

"Y-you how did you know all of this?" Asked Tsunade while trying to calm herself down as much as possible…

"Oh, that was actually thanks to Kushina" Bakorio said this lie as a matter of fact and even Tsunade couldn't see any falsehood on his face

"Kushina?" Asked Tsunade as she regained her calm and sat down again…

"Yes Kushina, When I gave them the spirit transformation Jutsu, she told me that this used to be the signature Jutsu of a man named Dan Kato and she said that he used to be your lover, so seeing you act like that I easily connected the two… " Bakorio had a sympathetic look on his face, and for the first time, it wasn't something he was faking because he really pitied this woman that lost everything dear to her in her life…

Hearing what Bakorio said and understanding that he knew what he was talking about and wasn't simply bluffing, Tsunade finally allowed for her true emotions to appear as her face became covered with sadness…"You are correct, I know I shouldn't be but I was actually envious of Minato and Kushina when I saw how they came back to life and I wished I could experience that type of happiness too and see my loved ones come back…"

Bakorio put on a thoughtful expression before he said out of nowhere "Can you promise me something?"

Tsunade reigned in her sad expression before she responded to this kid "What do you want? Are ou trying to make me emotional believing that it might help your negotiations for the strength of a thousand seal Jutsu?"

Tsunade thought this is what the kid was after and felt stupid that she actually opened up a little to him but she couldn't help but widen her eyes as she saw him shook his head and say with a genuine look "I know you don't have many attachments left to Konoha and I understand why, that's why I hope you can promise me that if something ever happens to me, please take care of Mikoto and the children in my absence. Of course, now Minato is alive so this is only when he's also occupied…"

Tsunade was truly shocked at the weird request this kid suddenly came up with but she suddenly had an idea and said "Are you willing to exchange this favor for the Jutsu you used to revive Minato and Kushina?"

Bakorio's eyes flashed a little bit before he replied "There lives can't be compared to any Jutsu but yes I don't mind going with this exchange…"

'He actually accepted? Is he really willing to give up his desire for my legacy just for the sake of his frien-' When Tsunade's thoughts reached this point, she suddenly remembered that this kid had just gone through an unimaginable amount of pain of transplanting several pairs of eyes just for the sake of reviving his friends and he didn't let a single sound out of his mouth so that he doesn't make them feel guilty about it…

'It seems I misjudged this kid…' Thought Tsunade before she let out a sigh and said "Fine I can promise you I will take care of your friends in case something happens to you and as you said, people are priceless so you don't need to exchange that Jutsu for them"

Just as she finished speaking, Tsunade witnessed a smile of delight appearing on Bakorio's face and was shocked as he muttered "Well you pass the test Tsunade, it seems it's worth it to invest some effort into helping you"

"What are you talking about?" Asked Tsunade with a frown not understanding what was going on, and Bakorio replied with the same smile "I can help you find some closure, but I had to test you first to see if this sacrifice is worth it or not, after all this time I will to use my own eyes" At the end, Bakorio pointed at his pitch-black eyes confusing Tsunade even more…

"Test? You mean you were lying when you said you might disappear?" Tsunade was about to get angry at the thought of this little kid toying with her but she suddenly noticed a sad look on his face that appeared for only an instant before it disappeared again as he said "No, I didn't lie to you, I would really love if you could help me fulfill that request…"

'Was I imagining things?' Thought Tsunade as she recalled that sad and lonely look 'No I'm not!' she was convinced that she saw right but she didn't want to bother him with it as it doesn't seem like something he would talk about so she asked him about something else he said that intrigued her "You said you want to bring me closure using your eyes?"

Bakorio nodded at her and to the shock of Tsunade, his eyes started to slowly change into his Mangekyo Sharingan before he said "Yes, these eyes can help you…"
